| Aim: The aim of the present study was to design the effectiveness system of Hormozgan Regional Electric Company. Methodology: The present research method was a mixed exploratory type. In the present study, in accordance with the aforementioned objectives, the documentary analysis method was used in the qualitative part and the Delphi method in the quantitative part. The population of the present study was the documents and records available in Hormozgan Regional Electric Company, and the purposive sampling method was used. In order to analyze the data, the coding and categorization method was used. The validity of the data was determined through the researchers' self-review and data alignment, and reliability was determined by carefully guiding the flow of information collection. Also, the validity of the model was carried out and approved using the questionnaire method using the Deffi method. Results: The desired model for evaluating the effectiveness of training in Hormozgan Regional Electric Company included response evaluation (instructor evaluation, content evaluation, learning activity evaluation, and planning evaluation), learning level evaluation (instructor evaluation, self-evaluation, and pre-test-post-test), behavior level evaluation (individual level evaluation and organizational level evaluation), results level evaluation (achievement of goals, extent of application of learning in the workplace, and effectiveness of the course in improving organizational performance), return on investment (cost, benefit, and time period), and level evaluation (individual level, organizational level, team level, and social level). Conclusions and suggestions: Finally, considering the weaknesses and also using existing effectiveness evaluation models, the desired model of Hormozgan Regional Electric Company was developed and suggestions were presented for its optimal use. Innovation and originality: The present study, considering the issues and problems of evaluating the effectiveness of training courses in the Hormozgan Regional Electric Company, designed its unique model and presented it to meet the basic needs of this field. | ||
